AHMEDABAD: Three years after the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act or Right to Education Act (RTE) was implemented on April 1, 2010, the state government has failed to mobilize poor students who can take benefit of the Act and get admission in private schools for free education. A pilot project initiated by the Ahmedabad district education office (DEO) to enroll 2,000 economically backward students in leading private schools in the city has come a cropper - only 35 applications were received by the authorities from the poor families.
